White supremacist march in Boston prompts calls for action from Black leaders

Black community leaders in Boston are marking the Fourth of July by responding to the white supremacists who marched through Boston two days ago.

Members of the group, identified by police as Patriot Front, marched through the city on Saturday with concealed faces, wearing shirts that read "Reclaim America."

The Anti-Defamation League, which tracks hate groups nationwide, has called Patriot Front a white supremacist group that spreads racism, antisemitism, and other forms of hate online. The ADL says the group is focused on "preserving America's identity as a European-American one."

Police say a Black man reported that he was assaulted during the march, after the man said he was trying to record the group on his cellphone. In the police report sent to ABC News by Boston Police Department officials, the man said Patriot Front members with shields began to surround and shove him after he started to record.
